He did a great job. As he was looking at the heat pump, I asked him if he thought I should purchase a new heat pump. He told me if my wife and I were his mom and dad, he said he would not recommend it until the unit had to be replaced. That was very helpful because our budget is not very good...

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on system age, type, labor, and whether part replacements are necessary.

Your HVAC manufacturer will give you instructions on how often you should service your system. Have your unit professionally serviced at least once a year when in doubt.

Heat pump systems are different because they provide heating and cooling solutions for your home. In this case, you should have it serviced at least twice a year.

Leaks, poor airflow, reduced efficiency, and loop blockages are common problems requiring service.

You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives).

Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.

Regular inspections, loop flushing, and checking heat exchangers help extend system lifespan.
